Title: Depression
Artist: Ryan Bingham
Album: Junky Star
Intro: G C (He swaps between them very quickly)
GIf I held my breath in the mCornGing would I wake up for a lCifetGime?
GLose my job in this dCepressiGon well I don't care 'cause I got Cyour Glove
In this dCepressiGon,   C    G    C    Gall I Cneed is Gyou
In this dCepressiGon,   C    G    C    Gwhat is Cthere to Glose? 
If I held your hand in this town
They would lock me up for possession
But now they're strung out on heroin
And we've gone out to California
In this depression
Breaks my heart in two
In this depression
All I need is you
I could make some friends down at the courthouse
Get bailed out and go on welfare
I'd rather lay down in a pine box
Than to sell my heart to a fucking wasteland
In this depression
It's just me and you
In this depression
What do we do?
In this depression
Breaks my heart in two
In this depression
All I need is you
If I held my breath in the morning
Would I wake up in a new land?
I'd follow you forever
And dance all night in this depression
In this depression
In this depression
In this depression
In this depression
If I held my breath in the morning
Would I wake up for a lifetime?
Lose my job in this depression
